Nice how Andrew's grandparents did not mind taking him if he ran someone over and killed them but if he was gay-no way. Also, Gaby really should have stuck with having no children.

I agree with Bubbas Mom about Bree having no parents in past episodes. I think Carol Burnett was supposed to join the show a few months back, but had other obligations with some show that she had written with her late daughter Carrie that she was committed to finish.
Also, where has Bree's daughter Danielle been? Grandma and Grandpa come to town and there is no mention of daughter?

As far as Gaby goes, I bet they will have Gaby get really attached to the baby eventually, and then have some kind of bitter custody battle with the natural parents. (The future episode did hint at the high school age father wanting to take the baby for a walk and Carlos telling him to get lost)

i agree.....didn't she bother to visit grandma & pops?? what the ******???

yep....i could see this happening. i think they are going towards a "custody battle" thing there..... (who's the MORE fit parent? )

According to Yahoo, this is tonight's "new" episode:

"The More You Know, the Juicier It Gets"
Catching up with the happenings on Wisteria Lane.

Are they really calling a rehash of the show a new episode? Lame!

 

[bicker]

Better than doing a rerun. There are five weeks left, including the two hour season finale, so their options are to run a clip show or a rerun one week -- I'd rather have a clip show.

 

[bubba's mom]

-- I'd rather have a clip show.

me too.....

 

[ChristmasElf]

Just one more way to attract new/more viewers and bring them up to speed.

Too bad those "new viewers" don't know about us here at the DIS
They could do all the catching up they need on Monday mornings!

 

[jedi_librarian]

Grrrrrr.. They're doing the same with Grey's Anatomy tonight!

The clip shows are also good about giving a little different take on things based on what clips they choose and the narration they put with them.

actually, Tuesday for my DF....thanks to you Elf!!

 

[Captain Brain]

Cool a clip show tonight....

 

[Imzadi]

GRRRR! They should NOT advertize these clip shows as "new episodes."

What a waste of a Sunday nite. I could have scheduled in going to the laundrymat instead, had I known it was going to be two episodes ((GA included,) of stuff I had seen already.

 

[Shugardrawers]

Somebody refresh me. How did Paul get away with killing Martha? Dh is driving me insane with asking me this and I don't remember. TIA

 

[Imzadi]

Well, you could probably wait for the next clip show in a couple of weeks. I'm sure they'll go over and over and over it all again.

 

[ChristmasElf]

Paul hasn't got away with the Martha killing yet. Felicia is now out to get him and is telling all on Wisteria Lane that Paul is a murderer.

Does anyone still want the recap of last night? It was a bunch of clips in an effort to get new viewers up to date. (I hope the reruns and the clippy shows don't end up killing this show altogether)

 

[bubba's mom]

Does anyone still want the recap of last night?

I don't need it.....but thanks!

 

[Shugardrawers]

Dang it! My boss called and wouldn't shut up. What was the deal with Caleb and Danielle??? Why did the arrange it to look like he was about to rape her??

 

[julia & nicks mom]

They did that so Betty would agree to put caleb in an institution

I sobbed at the end of the tonight's show - I can't imagine having someone take my baby away like that!

 

[kimmikayb]

I cried too, it was heart breaking

 

[dolphinrescuegirl]

I need a recap please!! I don't have cable and halfway through the reception totally went to crap. I saw it until Lynette accidentally sent the boss that im. Thanks

 

[r3ngels]

Wasnt that awful... especially after the miscarriage and how she fought for that baby... WOW so sad
